Alain D D Williams (12024-07-21): > I only needed root as it was for another user.
Exactly. On a computer with only one user account, once the pirate have access to that account, they can do everything that matters. Including spy the root password next time it is typed, but why waste the time when everything profitable is already there. The root account is important for multi-users systems and servers with privilege separation of services. Regards, -- Nicolas George
